Mobilization of sanctions against Russia. The eighth package will be approved. Is that enough

The world understands - with Russia you need to fight on all fronts. The Armed Forces wins the invaders on the battlefield. Ukrainian partners continue to press on the Russian economy, a specifics have appeared on the eighth package of sanctions of the European Union and its adoption. The document has expanded the list of Russian banks that will be disconnected from the SWIFT international payment system, and there will be a gasprombank. This means a willingness to forget about Russian gas and gas.

Concerning prices for Russian blue fuel - September 30 should consult EU energy. Price restrictions on oil from the Russian Federation will be implemented in accordance with the approved schedule. The Great Seven countries not only confirmed their intentions, but also emphasized the abandonment of Russian oil in their even domestic markets, thereby demonstrating an example for the whole world. Price CAP will work simultaneously with EU embargo on Russian oil imports.

There are two dates-December 5, 2022 and February 5, 2023. The first is a ban on import of crude oil, the second - for petroleum products. In addition, sanctions will be chemicals and steel products from Russia for a total amount of EUR 12 billion per year. Information technologies, cybersecurity and software are also undergoing sanctions pressure. Consultations are ongoing. In addition, European partners are discussing a ban on diamond imports from Russia.

Poland, Ireland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia are fully restricted. It is also about expanding the list of individuals under individual sanctions, for example, those who are related to the organization and holding of "referendums" in Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporizhia and Kherson regions. Meanwhile, visa prohibitions of the European Union for Russian citizens are gaining momentum.

On September 6, the European Commission supported the proposal to suspend the EU Agreement on a simplified visa regime with Russia. Finland is preparing a national decision to ban entering the country for Russian tourists with Schengen visas, and will soon be transferred to Parliament. And the National Coalition of Finland and the National Party of Real Finns urged the authorities to issue visas only to those Russians who have relatives in Finland.

Finns are well aware that their country is the last land route that can be reached in the Schengen area, so their task is to make a political decision, such as those who have already approved the Baltic States and Poland. They also discuss: British - sanctions in the field of providing financial, legal, consulting services; Italians - price restriction of gas; Poles and Canadians - preventing the bypass of sanctions; Norwegians and Swiss follow the EU fairway; Americans - set the pace.

For those who think that the remedial regime can be bypassed, money and ties, a special procedure is provided in Europe. One of the first was the Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov, whose villas were searched, investigative actions engulfed 24 objects, and 250 law enforcement officers participated in the operation. According to the Munich Prosecutor's Office, he used frozen funds, which violated Sankationsdurchsetzungsgesetz 1, or a law on sanctions.

The news instantly dispersed the world: do not even try to get around the sanctions. By the way, a proposal will soon be presented to recognize actions related to violation of the law on the compliance of sanctions, a criminal offense. It is difficult to overestimate this decision, since the criminalization of the article for evasion of sanction regime is actually 100% guaranteeing the execution of all sanctions.

The Russian State Corporation Rosatom also waited for its sanctions in the near future. Consultations of the Ukrainian Ministry of Energy and the United States have recently taken place. Both sides agreed that the company is directly involved in aggression against Ukraine, because it is directly related to the seizure of Zaporizhzhya NPP and hides the attacks of nuclear terrorism. On September 2, it became known that Ukraine imposes sanctions against Rossa.

There are many such shackles to break, this is all the result of sanction pressure and political decisions of Ukraine's partners. Can I imagine in February that the EU would give up Russian gas? Each new decision deprives Russia of Russia to finance war in Ukraine, brings the victory of the civilized world in the war with the inadequate policy of the Russian tyrant. Therefore, condescending policy does not guarantee any results.
